SPINACH AND THE BEST IN TOMATOES 
SPINACH 
(Espinaca) 
Spinach is a very scarce item this 
year due to war conditions in Europe. 
Spinach should be planted in very rich 
ground, the richer the better. Can be 
planted in our climate either in the fall 
or early spring. It requires about 20 
pounds to sow an acre broadcast; 5 to 
8 pounds per acre in drills; one ounce 
to 30 or 35 feet of drill.

NICHOLSON'S TOMATO SEED ARE RELIABLE 
(Tomate) 
The Tomato is truly the king of the garden. No other fruit is more appetizing and can be prepared in so many delightful ways. It carries 
within it immeasurable health-giving elements; science has discovered the Tomato to be rich in vitamins A, B and C. The Tomato is tonic whether 
served as vegetable, fruit or juice. And, too, no other cultivated plant bears as long and so productively. For early fruit the seed should be planted 
thinly in hot beds or in boxes indoors. Harden plants by exposing to the air occasionally. It requires about six weeks’ time for the plants to be- 
come large enough for transplanting. One ounce will produce about 1,500 plants, 4 to 6 ounces will make sufficient plants for an acre. 
NICHOLSON'S DALLAS 
395—NICHOLSON’S DALLAS. Matures in 
about 90 days. This wonderful tomato was 
originated by Wm. E. Vail, of Yorktown, 
Heights, New York, who has originated sey- 
eral other varieties of real merit and pro 
nounces NECHOLSON’S DALLAS one of the 
best. It is a cross of Marglobe and Ideal Red 
Globe. Fairly large in size, splendid globe 
shape, very smooth, solid and a heavy yielder. 
The vines are heavy enough to protect the 
fruit from sun scald. Our crop growing for 
seed created somewhat of a sensation and 
considerable interest has been shown by our 
grower, as well as other seedsmen, who in- 
spected the crop. Regret that we are able to 
offer seed only in a small way again this sea- 
son. Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; %4 Ib., $1.25; Ib., 
$4.50, postpaid. 
413—MARGLOBE (Certified). Requires 79 
days. Cross between Livingston’s Globe Tomato 
and a French variety by the name of Marvel. It 
is a bright red variety not only on the sur- 
face but all the way through. It is about the 
game size and shape as Livingston’s Globe. 
One of the best features is its resistance to 
wilt and nail head rust. An excellent shipping 
and market variety. Has very small core. 
Pkt., 10c; 0z., 40c; %4 Ib., $1.10; lb., $3.75;
